OK. 1011 00:46:57,240 --> 00:46:59,840 Let's see what this sponge is like. 1012 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:03,920 My cake is a lemon sponge with a plum compote. 1013 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,120 Great flavour.

Yeah. ...very sweet. 1025 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,960 But you can't put chocolate on like that. You need to spin it. OK. 1026 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:39,240 It actually looks far more delicate and pretty. 1027 00:47:39,240 --> 00:47:42,040 The biscuit itself is overbaked but nevertheless... 1028 00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:43,720 Good flavour. ...flavour's nice, yeah. 1029 00:47:43,720 --> 00:47:45,800 I think you struggled on a few things today 1030 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:47,800 but you've managed to do quite a lot in the time. 1031 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:49,760 And I loved your cake. 1032 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:51,360 MATT: Well done.

OK. 1053 00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,800 Supposed to be tarragon shortbread. 1054 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:02,840 What's the filling inside? It's blackberry buttercream. 1055 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,200 That is lovely shortbread. 1056 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:07,680 It's really buttery and very crisp. 1057 00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:10,880 You told us about the tarragon but it isn't there, you can't taste it. 1058 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:14,520 No. And frankly, I'm glad because it's really delicious. 1059 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:16,240 Thank you.

Mm. 1079 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:24,840 Abdul, if you thought about it, 1080 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:27,600 you could've made them a little bit more bee-shaped. 1081 00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:29,680 Definitely. So... This is the fattest bee! 1082 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,360 They taste beautiful. They're slightly chewy on the inside, 1083 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:34,520 a little crisp on the out... 1084 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:37,240 It's just you've got no dome so you just needed more time to rest 1085 00:50:37,240 --> 00:50:39,120 and a bit more height to that. 1086 00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:43,280 I think that the choux buns are the worst thing. Yeah. 1087 00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,320 I tried to fill some of them at least but they were just flat. 1088 00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:48,880 That's a proper failure. Yes, that's... I agree. 1089 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:51,840 And let's have a look at your biscuit. 1090 00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:53,560 Now we've done these before on Bake Off. 1091 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:55,640 So we know exactly what we're dealing with here. 1092 00:50:57,280 --> 00:50:59,440 Yeah, I think that's a triumph. 1093 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:03,000 That's lovely.
